This is what I've done in the past and it works - SOMETIMES. I found me a little drake and brought him to town and stood next to a healer and promptely began to heal and attack, rotating back and forth. Too much! After around 5 minutes (yes, at level 5, I held myself nicely), I gave up, er, he got me! Stupid drake. I brought his hp down quite a bit as a level 1 player who had just logged on killed him with 4 hits. Damn.
